Robert H. Ingersoll

Robert Hawley Ingersoll (December 26, 1859 - September 4, 1928) was an American businessman who initiated the "Dollar Watch," the first mass-produced inexpensive pocket watch in 1896.〔〔Cutmore, M. "Watches 1850 - 1980". David & Charles, Devon, UK. 2002.〕
==Biography==
Robert H. Ingersoll was born on December 26, 1859 in Delta, Michigan to Orville Boudinot Ingersoll and Mary Elizabeth Beers.〔
Robert moved to New York City in 1879 and entered the employment of his brother Howard, making and selling rubber stamps. In 1880 Robert opened his own wholesale business, also selling rubber stamps. In 1881 he was joined by his brother Charles Henry Ingersoll (1865–1948).〔Robert F. Tschudy, "Ingersoll, the watch that made the dollar famous", Bulletin of National Association of Watch and Clock Collectors, Vol. V, No. 3, April 1952.〕
The first Ingersoll watches, called "Universal" were introduced in 1892, supplied by the Waterbury Clock Company. In 1896 Ingersoll introduced a watch called the ''Yankee'', setting its price at $1. This made it the cheapest watch available at the time, and the first watch to be priced at one dollar; the "dollar watch" was born.〔
William H. Ingersoll was later a partner in the business.
On June 22, 1904 in Muskegon, Michigan he married Roberta Maria Bannister.〔
